Having downloaded the SLS release (0.98.1), I find that although I define
|
||||
/dev/sda4 of my scsi drive as a swap space and indead when the kernel boots
|
||||
I have the helpful message that the 8 Meg swap space is being added, I find
|
||||
that the 'free' command doesn't find the swap device at all 'free -s'
|
||||
returns 'swap: No swap device' and swapon -a reports that /dev/sda4 is
|
||||
already busy / mounted (presuably as a swap area)
|
||||
|
||||
Having read through the FAQ supplied in the release I found nothing to
|
||||
indicate any flags that might have been needed in /etc/fstab
|
||||
|
||||
/dev/sda4 none swap <???flags???>
|
||||
|
||||
I then thougt that this might be a case of recompile the kernel and run ps -U
|
||||
again but 25 min later and the same problem,.... the kernel reports that it is
|
||||
adding the swap space and free refuses to believe that I have, which is telling
|
||||
the truth?.
|
||||
|
||||
I was in the middle of downloading ps-0.98.tar.Z from sunsite when my network
|
||||
went down for nightly backups (pah) so I haven't recompiled the memory utils
|
||||
|
||||
does anyone spot where I've gone wrong?
